Grilled Sausages with Caramelized Onions and Apples
This was good. My 15-year-old went wild for the apple/onion mixture and didn't eat his sausages. He wanted to know when we could have it again.

Turkey Sloppy Joes
This was really good! I also added some green pepper that I had around, but otherwise made the recipe as written. Ground turkey around here seems to be available in 20-oz containers, rather than a pound, so I just added a little more of the sauce and spice ingredients. We did agree that it could have used a little heat, as some other reviewers have suggested. Next time I will add some Tabasco or a chile pepper.

Pakistani Style Vegetables
This recipe was great for a lot of reasons. It was incredibly flavorful, and the taste just improved as leftovers and after freezing. It's low-fat, low calorie, high fiber, and packed with vitamins. It's easy to make substitutions using what you have on hand. It's cheap! I made this for my book club when we met after reading "Three Cups of Tea," which takes place in Pakistan. Since there were 10 of us, I doubled the recipe and hoped it would be enough. It made a HUGE amount of food. What was supposed to be 8 servings turned out to be closer to 20--though it was served as a side dish. Even if I had only made a single recipe, it still wouldn't have fit in a medium saucepan! I followed the recipe relatively closely, with probably a little extra on the spices. The next time, I plan to try yams instead of potatoes. I served this with Pakistani Spicy Chickpeas from this site, basmati rice (cooked in a rice cooker with 3 whole cardamon pods, some turmeric, and a pinch of saffron), and frozen naan (Indian bread) from Trader Joes. I love Indian food, and this was close, but a lot less greasy. Do check out the detailed nutrition information on this recipe. I am in awe that anything that tastes this good can be so good for you!
